Wow-- a 51 Mantle is a momentous addition for any baseball card collection! Let alone one with such a sharp, striking image as that one. That card is hotter than a firecracker these days, with few nice ones surfacing compared to demand, and they are hotly contested when they do pop up. The true Rookie Card, and such a beautiful card, of the biggest hobby name alongside Ruth! Congrats and must make for such a Happy 4th!
Edit to add....speaking of 51 Micks
A buddy on the PSA boards came through in a major clutch way to help me get this one from across the country on this 4th. A card I've been scrambling to get more of before they go the way of their year-older cousin
The left/right centering was love at first sight!
